  1. The Romans did NOT tolerate any religion. PLEASE learn about a topic before you speak on it. The Romans did everything they could to stamp out the worship of Tanit and Baal. Rome also had MAJOR problems with monotheistic religions and persecuted Jews and Christians for hundreds of years.

  2. One thing you did not mention, which I think you should would be Herod's palace in relation to the Gennath Gate. Why is that important you ask? After Herod's death the Roman Governor turned it into the Praetorium, his residence and place of governance in Jerusalem. Jesus was taken to the Praetorium and it was there he was scourged, tried and sentenced to death. The Praetorium is a short walk to the Gennath Gate. The Praetorium was also a short walk from the Palace of Herod Antipas, Jesus was taken there from the Praetorium to be judged by Herod, before being sent back to the Praetorium. Guess what is also a short walk away from the Praetorium, the house of Caiaphas. All three spots mentioned in the scripture where Jesus was taken after being arrested were very close together and not far from the Gennath gate.

  3. The Garden Tomb is literally the very definition of a tourist trap. The Tomb itself was carved in the Iron age about 1,200 years before Jesus was even born. The garden, cistern and wine press are all from the times of the Crusades, about 1,200 years AFTER Jesus was Crucified. There is a ZERO percent chance the Garden Tomb was the place of Jesus's crucifixion and burial.

  4. Modern DNA studies totally disprove the Book Of Mormon. If it were true the American Indian would have genetic ties to the Jews and they do not.

  5. You know Ron Wyatt was not an archaeologist right? You do know he was a registered NURSE right? Why people think someone with ZERO training in archaeology can make all of these discoveries actual archaeologists never could baffles me.

  6. Would you really want to find the Garden Of Eden? Isn't there an angel with a flaming sword guarding the entrance?

  7. LOL The Garden Tomb was carved in the Iron Age, about 600 years before Jesus lived. There is a ZERO percent chance that it was Jesus Tomb.

  8. Science is a lot like religion as in it has dogma just like religion. If scientists come up with an opinion on a topic it is nearly IMPOSSIBLE to change their minds no matter what evidence is presented.

  9. Question, how much research have you done on the topic? I am will to bet NONE! I am willing to bet you are choosing to parrot nonsense you have seen on YouTube. You claim fictional locations yet with modern archaeology more and more of those are being proven to true. The Pool Of Siloam for example has recently been discovered. The tomb of the High Priest Caiaphas has been found. The Pilate stone, a damaged block (82 cm x 65 cm) of carved limestone with a partially intact inscription attributed to Pontius Pilate, a prefect of the Roman province of Judaea from AD 26 to 36. It was discovered at the archaeological site of Caesarea Maritima. Claiming that it is a book of fictional characters and fictional location is just willful ignorance on your part. I make no claims to who the biblical Jesus was, that is a matter of faith, that said the first century Jewish preacher Yeoshoua Bar Yosef is the HISTORICAL Jesus. He was crucified by the Romans for starting a riot on the Temple Mount and challenging the authority of the High Priest. At the time the High Priest was APPOINTED by the Romans, not chosen by the Jews. Challenging his authority was challenging Roman authority. Yeosoua Bar Yosef was more than likely executed for sedition.

  10. No it is not. The Garden Tomb was carved in the Iron Age, about 600 years before Jesus lived. The garden, cistern and wine press all date from the time of the crusades. There is a ZERO percent chance that it is Jesus Tomb. I will also point out that in Luke and John they SPECIFICALLY say that they had to stoop down to see in the tomb, the Garden tomb you can walk into without stooping.

  11. Ron Wyatt was a huckster and never found ANYTHING.

  12. The problem with Ron Wyatt is he had ZERO evidence for any of his claims. The fact that he tried to link it to the Garden Tomb alone proves he was wrong. He was not a trained archaeologist so his claims are to be taken with about a thousand grains of salt.

  13. Here are some fun facts for you. #1) The tomb in the Garden Tomb site was carved in the Iron Age, around 1,600 years before Jesus lived. It was ABANDONED in Jesus time. The Garden tomb is right next to a series of ROYAL Tombs but was separated by a wall from them. What that says is that it was almost certainly the tomb of King Uzziah of Judah, who died of leprosy. According to Jewish funeral practices someone who died from leprosy was unclean and they had to be separated from the clean. #2) The garden, cistern and olive press at the site date from the time of the Crusades.......about 1,200 years AFTER Jesus death. The Garden tomb has EXACTLY a ZERO percent chance of being the place of Jesus crucifixion and burial.

  14. It is alleged that he accepted Christianity on his deathbed but that is about it.

  15. You would be wrong, the Garden Tomb was carved in the Iron Age about 600 years before Jesus lived. There is a ZERO percent chance that it was Jesus tomb. I will also point out that Jesus was judged by Pilot at the Praetorium which used to be Herod The Greats Palace. It is a short walk from the Praetorium to the Gennath Gate and from there a short walk to where Jesus was Crucified and buried, that site being where the Church of the Holy Sepulture is today.

  16. A couple of other potential uses for those spears is they could have been used by siege engines. Or used in a similar method to the Zulu short handled stabbing spear.

There is a ZERO percent chance it was Jesus tomb. I will also point out that in Luke and John they SPECIFICALLY mention that they had to stoop down to look into Jesus tomb, that is not the case with the Garden Tomb.

  18. The Garden Tomb was carved in the Iron Age, about 600 years before Jesus lived. It can't possibly be the tomb of Jesus.

  19. So where is the Gennath gate at? It should be close to the tower of Hippicus, that was most likely the gate Jesus was taken out of and it was a short walk to where he was crucified.

  20. I wonder if anyone has ever taken a Geiger counter in there to see if there is any traces and anomalous radiation left behind.

  21. Doesn't DNA evidence disprove the book of Mormon? There is no genetic link between the American Indians and the ancient Jews.

  22. LOL You do understand his name was Yeshua right? So it makes no difference when you THINK the letter J was invented. The J (Yod) letter in Hebrew has the same age as all 22 letters, 3870 years. They are directly derived from Egyptian hieroglyphs, for instance Yod represents a hand in Egyptian, but means the sounds I and Y in Hebrew. The date of this inscription is important because it debunks the silly conspiracy claim that Christianity was made up by the Romans to control people.

  23. Constantine's mother did not just miraculously find the crucifixion site and tomb. When she got to Jerusalem she asked the early Christians who were living there where it was. THEY showed her where it was because its location was never forgotten. People were venerating that site LONG before she "Found" it. Even when there was a Pagan Temple on top of it Early Christians were worshipping near there. The Garden Tomb section where the supposed skull hill is, has a ZERO percent chance of being the actual place.

  24. Only people with below average IQ's think there was not a historical figure named Yeshua Bar Yosef.

  25. There is ZERO archaeological evidence that this place is the the actual site of the upper room, last supper and Pentecost. The building where those events happened was destroyed by the Romans in 70 AD and its location lost to history.

  26. I there ANY evidence that shows the Jews were even enslaved in Egypt? From everything I have read there is none.

  27. There is ZERO evidence supporting that. The tomb belonged to a RICH Jewish family, so right away we know it was not Jesus family tomb.

  28. The Garden Tomb was carved in the Iron Age, about 600 years before Jesus lived. There is a ZERO percent chance that it was the tomb of Jesus.

  29. Ron Wyatt found NOTHING! He was not an archaeologist he was a nurse anesthetist who had ZERO training in archaeology. Why do people insist on believing in a huckster who made many wild claims but had ZERO evidence for ANY of them.

  30. LOL Ron Wyatt, the huckster. Not an archaeologist but a registered NURSE! Somehow you are going to take his word over actual archaeologists. Seems legit! Question, if you get a brain tumor, are you going to a proctologist for treatment or are you going to see a neurologist? The Garden Tomb, was carved in the Iron Age about 1,600 years BEFORE Jesus lived. It was ABANDONED in Jesus lifetime. The Garden, cistern and olive press at the site all date from the CRUSADES about 1,200 years after Jesus lived. What they also don't tell you is that the Garden Tomb is in a ROYAL TEMPLE complex for Hebrew Kings. It is separated from them by a wall. More than likely it was the tomb of King Uzziah of Judah, who died of leprosy and was considered UNCLEAN so a wall was built around his tomb to separate it from the clean. The Holy Sepulcher site was venerated by early Christians almost from the time Jesus was Crucified. Not only is there proof that there was agriculture there in the first century, there are also a series of first century tombs there. That proves it was outside the city and the Jews were burying there dead there.

  33. You would be incorrect. It clearly states that the centurion plunged his spear into Jesus side to confirm that he was dead and water came out. Jesus had a hemothorax, which in the stillness of the dead body, had separated out as they do into two layers: the heavier red cells below and the light watery plasma above. The hemothorax was the result of the savage flagellation. The withdrawal of the spear would have been followed first by the red cells (blood), then by the lighter plasma (water). The body of Jesus had been hanging on the cross, dead, for some time.
